  • Patent number: 5313126
    Abstract: An electromagnetic interference suppressing (EMI) interconnect for connecting a DC motor to a DC source comprising a pair of copper sheets disposed between insulative sheets, and wrapped around the motor housing. A lead extends from each copper sheet for being connected to one side of the DC source. A connector tab extends from each copper sheet for being connected to one terminal of the DC motor. The copper sheets may be spaced laterally apart and disposed between a single pair of insulative sheets, or may be overlayed and separated by an insulative sheet. EMI suppression provided is greater than that possible with known capacitance devices of similar capacitance values.

  • Patent number: 4530611
    Abstract: A trolley of a printer includes a pair of angularly upright projecting dovetail-like fingers spaced apart near a left edge thereof, and a spring biased wedge pin located near a right edge thereof, for slideably engaging chamfer-like surfaces on the left and right-hand sides of a printhead assembly, respectively, for permitting the assembly to be snapped into and out of retention upon the trolley, the trolley further including right and left hand leaf springs located near its rear edge for pushing the printhead assembly forward toward the front edge of the trolley to a forwardmost position determined by one of the pair of dovetail-like fingers striking a "stop" located upon one side of the printhead assembly for preventing further forward movement, whereas the printhead assembly is pushed rearward upon the trolley in the event of a paper jam developing between the printhead and a platen.
